Le cose impossibili di Ava

LOVE,love this film,mystical, magical liked the cast. I would recommend it!

It's mostly fantasy, and so it seems a bit glossy, and it hinges on a dilemma that some may find objectionable. And it's LGBTQ friendly, which may put off others. But it's still deeper and truer to life than 75% of what you're watching now; unrecognized hurts and selfishness masquerading as selflessness and how protecting yourself can end up walling you off from the people you need, and who need you.

There's an unnecessarily long (gratuitous?) love scene towards the end that's distracting, so it's not perfect, not flawless acting, last scenes a bit formulaic and Hallmark-ish...but still, worth a watch.

Regardless of any other issues, this movie lacks quality in both acting and story presentation.

Chloe Farnworth has to give a performance filled with various strong emotions and most of the time the performance does not ring true; it does not seem real.

Because of the dream sequence, some of the details of the plot are unnecessarily confusing. The dream sequence could have been fanciful and enjoyable, but it is mostly spent in various disagreements. The sequence includes some characters who correspond to real life, and some who are creations of Ava's imagination, for example Depression, Denial, and Acceptance.

There is a strong subplot regarding relations between semi-estranged sisters.

I have two parental warnings: 1) There is a scene over 5 minutes long of two women shown topless and they are kissing and being passionate with one another. They are explicitly revealed above the waist. One of the women is obviously pregnant in this scene. I am leaving out a lot of detail about this scene for decency's sake.

2) Much of the movie is about a disagreement between Ava and her mom about her mom ending her life. Her mom has Huntington's which is extremely debilitating and she is already suffering severe loss of function. Ava does a poor job presenting any reasoned case against it so the movie leaves us with a lopsided view of a controversial topic.
